as her husband's death, she has replaced him now, is russia's main opposition figure? well, and you didn't have all of this appear in sewing. the political stage came as a surprise to many to be honest. we remember that you've said you've had it a sarah, just a few mom. i mean, you know, it's off the who husband's death sheets, polk, at the munich security conference. the friday before last announced that she wanted to follow in her husband's food stamps. some of the say that is a big announcement and that all those who believe that prosecute to do with something just like a, just like a academic covers magic and above all, to read just the woman who can do for the divide the trash in a position to a completely new structure and style with her protest. of course she has one major problem and the problem is that she's completely unknown and is a petition. and yes, she doesn't believe in russia either. well, you could say that most ross in a position to think that it's no longer live in russia. it's yes, they all have these problem of kids ability. this is precisely why look seen of out

and they returned the rush off the he's poisoning as a rush of politics. me. she wanted to be close to that. as some people he wanted to travel on the same subway in moscow as of the others. and he wanted to be very close to his go with us. so it's very doubtful whether you got enough i, in the i can achieve all these, but at least she's already giving their actual position a phase and the voice and says off to the death of her husband. that optional position is not that. how does the rush or react all of this as well as think russia will not? i think it is sad. russia has not yet reacted officially. i don't think guys, there will be any yeah. official comments from the kremlin either president putin has to be known for us not to mention the volume his name, and to play down his importance as a politician, as much as possible for critical in mind to draw sions. novalis. appearance today is of course, a powerful symbol for everyone in russia who's do you believe in europe in the u. i

says it's started because there are many people in russia who under the impression of the russian states media and the very hate field reports about the ropes. identify the you with the dental and 0. and believe that europe, once the russians collapse. so for those who still believe in the euro, it's real, of course, be a great the just to offer the nation. because the nation not only for like, say, or, you know, one of all, now personally. but for all those russians who are persecuted and punished for their critical opinions, your, you know, you mentioned the volume is funeral, which will be held in moscow on friday. can. can you tell us any more details about that? what exactly is being expected? as well as far as with knowing of all is a press secretary to write. got him is a sad just a few minutes. a goal is that the touch funeral will take or will take place in

a church, in the most close up, up, some of, of, of embodied you know, it should be sad to that and of all the extent of all new boys, according to his own words, a religious man and the confessed to being a russian orthodox at christian. the ceremony is kendall to take place on friday at noon at 2 o'clock most cold time. is the opposition politician is to be buried. it's off to the church ceremony at, at the free eye, the cemetery at stores to post that, to the volley. would it be buried tomorrow on. so is the box on is that today? no one's called before. it could be found the most go to prepay on the phone, is great, according to at least one of his colleagues on this colleagues, all call it also sad or suspect that the, that these was because the president vladimir putin will do for she's speech to the nation tomorrow on thursday of all his colleagues actually wanted to find

a large hole when of only some memorial ceremony could take place. so that as many people as possible, who would say, find a firewall to him. however, they were reportedly audited by the authorities to hold to the funeral, in not rather small circle the same that the volume this mazda was told in it, pieces of colony inside of the cock a few days ago. we don't yet know how small these a circle finally will be and whether or not all of this funeral will receive maybe much more attention. we'll see that exactly on friday. if, if it happens, you're already of a shadow, dw rico bureau t. thank you. from wireless costs are bound to regard dw correspondence up to here, p and parliament and strasburg. so band, nevada, your steps up to a new role after her husband's death. how is she being received fairly strossberg

with a lot of respect of cause. after all, she's a morning widow, a last off and after the 54 years of marriage and there's a lot of respectful her brave commitment to continue the book of her husband. and that is what the deputies expect from had to day. and a little bit of an explanation of an outlook. what is she going to do? and it will also be a memorial of the alex in the volunteer of cause. and as we speak, the deputies are now gathering here in, in the i'm a secret in the plenary and the 1st of robots i met. so now the president of the parliament will address the change that and say a few words about the, the life and death of alex in i've only met to the said on the long that the russian authorities that mr. put in, took away for the freedom and then the life i like say, nevada, they, she stopped short of saying that coaching the president of else actually murder or at the murder of novelty that can maybe be done in the resolution. that is the late

to hear on the agenda and, and there's nobody can expect support. and also maybe some money for have fund station in the future. pneumonia is calling for the you to increase sanctions against russia. is that likely to happen as well? that is the brother difficult to go. they all ready, 13 rounds of sanctions in place and also sanctions against the like me to put in personally and the parliament that the majority of the deputies will support this demand. and so it'd be the most sanctions but the other institutions in brussels, the commission and the council, the member states a little bit more reluctant and to widen the sanctions get again. but as soon as it is clear, who actually is responsible for the death of alex and nevada,

personally, if they can find perpetrators of people that are very closely involved, then they could sanction these persons personally. but no sanctions. i got against businesses all sectors in russia. a plant, as of now, you repeat lawmakers will later debate and of all new staff. what exactly are we expecting? well, in this afternoon, the part of the discuss the revolution. not only about the death of alex in a volume, but also about the defense towards russia in general. and russia is regarded now as, as an enemy here and not as important anymore, but as it used to be a couple of years ago. and it will be a very harsh criticism of restaurant. also a harsh criticism in the run up to the elections in russia. a criticism of the put in a call of course, for most sanctions from department of that through the industry. listen basically

i want to express our deepest condolences to you, the you, lia, to your children, daria the huh. to alexis, baron. so you'd be lined on up to me to his family, friends, and countless supporters in russia and across the globe. alexei, nevada, dedicated his life to the fight against corruption and for a democratic russia. he did not give up when they tried to poison him. he did not give up when he was unjustly, in present. he did not give up when his sentence was extended in a sham trial. he did not give up easily when confronted with suffering and injustice, and neither must we. democracy takes bravery. and alex, a understood that that is why he went back to russia in 2021. that is why he put to not to be broken. and that is exactly what made the regime so afraid of

him. but alex says, fights and yours. the many brave people who took to the streets of russia off to his desk shows yes, a gain the fragility of author retiree and this, and as i take solace in the fact that if history states is us any, think it is the pillars of talk or see, in the end, always always crumbled under the weight of its own corruption. and people's inheritance desire to live freely. and when they inevitably do, it would be thanks to was alexa and your family did. so da, usually on behalf of the european parliament that spends an observation of your coverage. i thank you and the floor is yours. the

do you mind? i'm president the ledges and gentlemen. thank you for the opportunity to to hear me today. after putting tried to kill exceed for the 1st time relief installs in germany for several months. alexi was recovering funds from the pausing. learning call to walk and try all over again. the walk to load sometimes going on the short trips, one of them we went to strasburg with the children is all the children it is one of my inside lives whose favorite seats is because i've been there several

times to get it. and then 3 years ago, we decided to show it to them. now my husband is dead. i'm back to strasbourg. but i am no longer working around this. my family. i stay here and to duress, you and your person, the whole europe. and i still just in 12 days, suicide lex's not or i would have time to prepare for the speech, but chose this bent eviction. if he could get to alex's body and organizing funeral, then i choose this segment 3 and coughing. the funeral will take place the day after tomorrow, and i'm not sure yet with it. it will be peaceful or with the police view or as those who have come to see with the by to my husband.

the thank you. call it, but i'm study staging here because your waters have an important question. they are asking you about it and then you ask you meet the question is how can i help you in the flight last started the was 2 years. these boy just started a full scale war against ukraine and brutal in sneaky war the whole war to rise to the grange 8, but 2 years passed. there is much exhaustion, much blot, march, disappointment, and fortune has gone nowhere. ever since it's already been used, rapids mani sanctions. nothing is working. and the board has happened. every one good to use to the war here and there are people start to see, well,

we'll have to come to an agreement was put in any way. and then put, which includes my husband, i look see nobody on here. so there's, i think steve was tortured for 3 years. she was starved in the tar needs tone. so collado from the outside world and denied visits, phone calls and then even the letters. and then they told him, even after that they abused his budget and abused his mother on the 110th the public want no notice hes once again showed everyone the push in is capable of anything and, and that you can not negotiate with him. but on that thing,

but on the other side, i can also see how shocked everyone is. many people has the feeling. the fulton cannot be defeated at tall and in these discoloration, they are now asking me, how can i help you? and i'm thinking about how alexi would answer this question. i will try on, sorry, but to do so, i have to tell you later about what he was like. alexi was inventor. he all does hit in new ideas for ever seen, but specially in politics. you can select so at the beginning of june, many of you will become playing in mid the waters, given interviews,

shorting commercials. now imagine that all of these is impossible. no tv station will do an interview with, you know, money in the work can to help you visit. they come our show and the water's hole came to the meetings. you'd be interested a long visit can to that welcome to purchase. the russian emptied alexi not only has managed to become the moist flame with willie to some there. she was able to inspire millions of people. this he's ideas. how did you call? did she do that? she was all this fun to sizing and experimenting. you all know to a lot on tv lesser let's learn how to make youtube videos so the whole

country can watch them. you are not allowed to vote. you can come up visa of texaco voting strategies to take seats away from the ruling party. even in which is go lot alike. see man, there's to pause on up to watch on ideas for projects that would make the crandon panic. she was the opposite of ever seeing boring. these is the answer to the question. if you really want to defeat pushing, you have to be con, become an in nobody turn you off. you have to stop being boring. you can the, you cannot towards putting these in the, in the resolution or,

and not just set of sanctions. that is no different from the previous one. you cannot the feed him by thinking he's a man of principle who has morals and rules. so she is not like that. and i looks like she realized that a long time ago, you're not dealing with a police. you're not dealing with the application, but the civil ident monster. fortune is the leader of an organized cream and no getting push in is the leader of sorry thank you. the and did is due to repeat it again. fortune is the leader of organized cream, and again, this includes the,

this includes for the nurse and s as scenes, but they had just buffets. the most important thing is the people close to putting, she's friends, is social, is a keeper of mazda, of money. you and all of was, was floods, the cream and login, and the political innovation here is to plot the mess. that's all for team organize crime. not probably to go competition, no diplomatic note, but investigations into the financial, making nations not space months of concern, but the source of mazda associates in your countries would excrete long. 2 ours in finance or towards helping woodson and his friends to white money in the slides you cuz reliable allies, there are bands of millions,

the russians who against war it gives fortune. it gives the evil he brings to the not the not to be much nor there 6, use them. on the contrary, you must have worked with them with us the which in most us the full board chief has done these in my country, which in most us there for what he has done to a neighboring peaceful country. and fortune must ask for ever since he has done to alex, see the my husband's, you'll never see was a beautiful russia of the future. you'll look like. but the must seat.

and i will do the and, and david will do my best to make his dream come through the will build full and the beautiful future. feel. com. thank you. the, the wireless and in the

past that by the, the, with the recently on the system. the thank you very much. there's no the for the power for the statements. now we will have a round of speakers for multiple different groups. so starting of the full,

a little bit of insight in a to a wants, a zillion about a, a, a said the let's across to our correspondent in a strasburg band of the gods. and also to dw a, re, god bureau chief. you reset to a, standing by the band, a start with, you know, just summit up for us. what did you end up on? i say what was her central message that she was received a lot of applause of all the from the parliament that she was speaking here as a guest up under the happens auditor 5 minutes does usually the bottom page respect to her and also to the book of, of us been unexplained, nobody misses pneumonia said that it allows me to put in the president of russia. is that go to a bloody monster. food is the leader of a criminal gang, and this gang has to be brought down and she appealed to the real pin union to help

her in that side. not only to target the boot into the sanctions, but to target the organized crime and the criminal gang around him with the sanctions. and the all means that pick up a in that circumstance. and she said that the dream of her husband is a long time, a opponent of when has to come through and to boot, come through in the end and a very moving speech a by a video that pledged to continue the book all task. but no, your re, how will these was be received by the russian political, a position to well good. how do you frequency does that? does the russian political opposition has been divided for years and has no united boys also because by the way of all is rejecting a tooth in the past. if you can see, does it does, there are apparently no other instruments for the political opposition in russia at

the moment, apart from yeah, let's say making speeches from abroad. if you can see that almost every critical statement involved, the official russian policy can or could be prosecuted and punished in russia itself, then that option of political position must or can be satisfied or heavy with you then of all as speech today because she gave the position to voice f hayes and she didn't put her live or have freedom all the life of freedom of the other trees. so s p u. symbolic politics of this most of course of the strong us moment for the national position. yes. and yes, you the bonus speech as probably made one or the other putting support i ended up in problem and think or change their mind. is it concrete? the aspect of the, of the speech in vasa itself is something different in a band you are just mentioned that how has this speech been received in stroudsburg by european parliamentarians? does it make a difference?

do people have to change their minds? the majority of the deputies he is supporting enough on these are in the, in his videos because they say put in is our enemy. russia has to be afraid of him . they have to have the opposition. and this is the majority. but the means that the problem it has to do that limited. they also need the institutions in brussels like that you commission. and then of course, the member states that are deciding upon sanctions and that actually reciting on foreign policies. so it's, it's a show of support here, but if the parliament as such as not very powerful in these methods and of course the problem is also asking to blame, putting himself for the desk of the valley and try to him out some of the sanctions talked to him.
